I am running the latest BIOS (3.00) because it is required to get this
board to POST with Opteron 252 processors (found that out the hard way).

I left memtest run overnight (I know, not that long...) and there were no
problems.

I can't comment here as I don't use mplayer. I do use xine and it runs
perfectly from a chroot (for w32 codecs). XMMS runs fine natively.
